Ok, since you all are too shy to go first, I'll start with suggestions for rmy 1st Aid Kit: corn starch, Karo syrup, heating pad, Pedialyte, thermometer, syringe (sp?), duck soup recipe, poison contol phone #, emergency vet phone #, and a flash light. OK, now your turn... Lucy and Greta are the best of buddies and always get along. Yesterday, however, I saw Lucy on top of Greta and biting her neck. I didn't think too much of it, but this morning she tried it again. This time she dragged Greta out of her teepee by the ear and dragged her underneath the dresser. I just sat and watched in shock, but since Greta wasn't making any noise, I didn't interfere. Afterward, they played like normal. Is Lucy acting like this because of the new cat? She doesn't like the cat chasing her but now is finally starting to stand up to her a little. I felt so bad for Greta, but she just took it in stride, like everything else. She is just such an easy-going, agreeable ferret. Deana - Greta gets vaginitis occasionally, too. In fact, she has it now. I use a topical antibiotic cream twice a day. It goes away after a few days but comes back every few months or so. She also has allergies/asthma. Not sure if there is a correlation... Men vs Women - I brought Lucy to work one day and all the women were standing 15 feet away from me and ready to jump up on there desks if Lucy moved at all (she was sleeping in my arms). The guys all came over to pet her. What's up with that? Women can be CEO's, etc, but are still afraid of small furry animals... Is Ferretone really not good to gve to the fuzzies or is everyone over-reacting? I have heard that some people mix it with olive oil (is that correct?). That would dilute it some. My fuzzies LOVE the stuff! I couldn't clip their nails without it. Barb and the ever-lovin' fuzzies; Lucy (I can't beat up the big orange furball so I'll just beat up on Greta instead!) & Greta ( go ahead! I'll get lots of kisses and treats from Mom when you're done, so there!) P.S. Skeeter - how about "Speaker of the Bridge" (just like Speaker of the House and there is no "work" involved...)
